Make Connections at Rocky River Chamber's Expo

The Rocky River Chamber of Commerce proudly presents its 13th annual Business Expo on Thursday, October 8, from 2:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. at the Don Umerley Civic Center, 21016 Hilliard Blvd. in Rocky River. You are invited to attend this lively event to network with business owners and individuals who offer products and services in the area. Admission is free when you present your business card.

Expo 2015 will feature over 100 exhibitors, including 12 restaurants. The event presents businesses with a unique opportunity to stand out in today’s competitive business world. It is expected that attendance will top 1,000 again this year. It’s noteworthy that in 2014, 60% of attendees provided a home or work address outside of Rocky River. Therefore, the Expo presents an opportunity to make wide-ranging connections while learning how products, services and technology can help make your business grow.

The wine and beer tasting event will be returning this year from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Local retailers West Shore Wine Company and Giant Eagle will be selling a variety of fine wine and beer samples.

Jason Lukz, of W3 Wealth Management and Chairman of the Expo Committee, offers just a few of the reasons that make Expo 2015 a valuable business investment. “Being visible and getting noticed can be difficult for some businesses. At Expo 2015, attendees will immediately realize the benefit of networking on a large scale. It’s a powerful five hours filled with high energy. The Expo will feature a wide variety of exhibitors who are eager to network and share their expertise and knowledge. We’ve witnessed many successful connections made at the Expo over the years.”

“I encourage you to attend Expo 2015. There’s no better place to experience the power of face-to-face networking,” Lukz said.

Valet parking is available for $5 per car. Free offsite parking is available at St. Thomas Lutheran Church at 21211 Detroit Road in Rocky River. A shuttle bus will run continuously between the front door of the Don Umerley Civic Center and the St. Thomas parking lot. All exhibitors and attendees who use the shuttle will be entered into a raffle to win valuable prizes.
